What is Cortoux LS Syrup?
Cortoux LS Syrup is a combination medication containing Ambroxol, Levosalbutamol / Levalbuterol, and Guaifenesin. It's used for treating coughs with mucus. Ambroxol acts as a mucolytic agent, thinning and loosening the phlegm, facilitating easier coughing. Levosalbutamol is a bronchodilator that relaxes airway muscles and widens airways. Guaifenesin functions as an expectorant, decreasing the stickiness of mucus to facilitate its removal from the airways.
